Early commencement of enteral feeds (CEF) is known to improve feed tolerance in preterm infants. It is possible that infants with gastroschisis may also benefit from early CEF.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Objective\u2003To conduct a systematic review to evaluate the relationship between time of CEF, and time to reach full enteral feeds (FEF), duration of parenteral nutrition (PN), and duration of hospital stay (HS).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Methods\u2003PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane CENTRAL, and relevant conference abstracts were searched in December 2015. Studies of any design reporting on time to CEF and one or more of the outcomes of interest were included. Meta-regression analysis was conducted to find the association between time to CEF and the outcomes of interest.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results\u2003There were no randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing early (\u22647 days from birth) versus delayed (&gt;7 days) CEF. Forty-two observational studies on gastroschisis (4,835 infants) where feed-related information was available were included. Meta-regression results indicated that each day delay in CEF was associated with a delay of an additional 1.4 days (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.95, 1.85) to FEF, 2.05 days (95% CI: 1.50, 2.59) to the duration of PN, and 1.91 days (95% CI: 1.37, 2.45) to the duration of HS. Sensitivity analysis after excluding studies that provided information exclusively on complex gastroschisis continued to show beneficial effects of early CEF.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusion\u2003Early CEF may be associated with early attainment of FEF in gastroschisis. RCTs comparing early versus delayed CEF are needed urgently.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0037-1598086","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,23]],"date-time":"2017-01-23T18:48:37Z","timestamp":1485197317000},"page":"503-515","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":26,"title":["Early Commencement of Enteral Feeds in Gastroschisis: A Systematic Review of Literature"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"27","author":[{"given":"Madhuri","family":"Dama","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Medicine, Fiona Stanley Hospital, Murdoch, Western Australia, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Uday","family":"Rao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ian","family":"Gollow","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Paediatric Surgery, Princess Margaret Hospital, Perth, Western Australia, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Max","family":"Bulsara","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics, University of Notre Dame Australia, Fremantle, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shripada","family":"Rao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Princess Margaret Hospital for Children, Perth, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,23]]},"container-title":["European Journal of Pediatric Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0037-1598086.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,20]],"date-time":"2017-12-20T01:57:21Z","timestamp":1513735041000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0037-1598086"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,23]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"06","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,30]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2017,12]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0037-1598086","relation":{},"ISSN":["0939-7248","1439-359X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0939-7248","type":"print"},{"value":"1439-359X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,23]]}}}
